The New York Freeman, the organ oi
the colored people, says: "Had Lincoln
been able to attend the celebration ol
his birthday by the Republican club Of
New York he would have been aston.
ished at the utter absence of any repre-.
sentative Of the 100000 colored
Republicans he made for the party by
the stroke Of peu more than twenty
years ago." This IL too bad. The club
did not even give the editor Of the
Freeman chance to serve the table, all
of which goes to show that the Republi.
cans love for negro is not near so
intense as the love Of the negro for a
yellow dog. The negro is useful TO the
Republican party ouly as an excuse to
abuse the South.-N. o. States.

A certain paper, not a thousand mill
from here, wants to know why men are
Democrats or Republicans? and if he had
gone on and asked why are men and
women Methodist, Baptist, Presby terians
and Catholics, Democrats or Republicans,
the enquiry would have been made
with equal pertinence Of enquiry. Why
do children have blue and black eyes,
straight or frizzled hair? Because they
inherit them. The same thing happens
outside of physical laws in shaping our
moral and religious tendencies. Nine
hundred and ninety-nine men and
women in this country are religionists
after the faith oftheir fathers or mothers,
and the same thing holds good in our
exhibitions of political faith. There are
two exceptions to this general rule, and
these exceptions calculate the chances
OF the profit and loss involved in the
choice, while a few really investigate the
causes and effects, outside Of any heredl-
terry, pecuniary or social consequences.
But they are the rare few to be found
now and then. ...

been no local jealousies or rivalries
among the leading property holders.
Perhaps no place in all this southern
section, has grown up more on its own
merits than has this. None of the
clap-trap devices, SO common on such
occasions and at such places, have been
resorted to to mislead open investigation.
Therefore the Duck Hill boom has grown

Coal on the Manitoba.

FoRr BENTON, May 2o.-The Rioe,'
Press says that the government, under
date of May IS, is asking for bids for fur
nishing and delivering to the post at Fort
A~ssinaboine 900 tons of Ignite coal; the
coalt be the same or equal quality as tn t
obtained at the mines near Belknap
agency on Milk river. This coal is mined
within a dozen miles Of the post, and has
been used at the Indian agency at Fort
Belknap for years past. We are informed
by persons, who know by practical exper-
fence, that it has been thoroughly tested
and found to be of superior quality in
every respect. The officers at Fort ASSN
aboine must have satisfied themselves on
this point before asking to be supplied
with it. The mine is Immediately on the
line of the Manitoba railroad, and its pro-
duct can be delivered in Benton by rail
at a very low price. The whole Milk
river country is covered with coal of the
same quality.

frozen ground, which extends down a

that the graders supply of provisions

their wants were promptly supplied, and

a New Alliance.

DULUTH, May 1e.-An important item
of railroad news was learned here this
evening. It relates to a contract between
the D~uluthgsouth Shore & Atlantic and
the Manitoba roads. As was we'll known,
the South Shore road expected to build
into Duluth and also to extend into the
wheat regions of the northwest. It now
transpires that by a contract entered into
with the Manitoba its owners have aban-
doned this intention, and indeed will not
build into Duluth as originally intended.
By the terms of the contract the South
Shore road is to stop at the south shore or
a little this side, and the Manitoba will
build to Duluth and ON east to a connec
ton with the South Shore. In return for
its abandonment of the proposed extension
to the northwest the Manitoba agrees to
give the South Shore read all the business
from the west that it can handle.

L ORGANIZED.
Water-Power Utilized.

Virginia City, Nevada, stands on an ise-
lated mountain range, separated from the
Sierras by a narrow valley. The range is
some 5,6 0 feet in hight; that is the gen
eral hight. To obtain good water for the
city a company was formed, an artificial
lake was made upon the side OF the Sier-
ras; the water was brought from that lake
down some ten miles and across Washoe
valley, and up ami over the mountain into
Virginia City. There is a pressure of
LOO feet v~crticle on the pipe in the val
ley, and a stream the size of a straw from
that pipe in the valley will cut like a
knife. This year a second and larger
pipe is being put in, the intention being
to run the mills in Six Mile
Canyon below (east of Virginia City
by water-power. 1t is expected that a
pressure of 1000 pounds per square inch
with it can be got On the wheels. With
water pipes from Utah lake something
like that, though, of course, not so extern

In many localities along the CHICAGO &
Northwestern E. r. hundreds of families
are homeless and houseless without any
clothing except what they have on. No
stores are left to furnish supplies. Stan
hope and Houghton are sending mattress
and bedding to the homeless people. A
rough estimate only can be given at this
hour. The excitement making it impess-
ible to get at the real figures, but il is safe
to say that the loss on buildings alone foot
up above 100000.

How Sheep are Doing.

Robert Blankenbaker, the well-known
and successful Wool-grower, in converse
ton with a TRIBUNE representative, stated
that the sheep generally throughout this
portion of the territory were doing finely,
much better in fact than for several years
past. He says the lamb crop will be larger
than any for several years, while the mar
ket indications are good for a fair price
for the clip. Taking everything into con-
sideration, he is of the opinion that the
outlook for the wool industry is particu-
larry bright.
